d. Miscellaneous Instruments.
(1) Purpose.
Miscellaneous instruments display hydraulic pressure, FUEL quantity, outside temperature,
and time. The pilot indicator edgelighting is controlled by the pilot EXT LT/INTR LT panel. The CPG
edgelighting is controlled by CPG INTR LT panel.
(2) System of Operation.
(a) The pilot dual hydraulic pressure indicator (fig. 821) receives inputs from the primary and utility
hydraulic pressure transducers. The hydraulic pressure transducers convert hydraulic pressure into 0 to 5 VDC
signals. VDC power moves the pointers across the dial. The pointer moves with changes in pressure.
(b) The pilot emergency hydraulic pressure indicator (fig. 822) receives inputs from the utility hydraulic
system emergency pressure transducer. The emergency pressure transducer converts hydraulic pressure into 0
to 5 VDC signals. VDC power moves the pointer across the dial. The pointer moves with changes in pressure.
(c) The FUEL quantity indicator (fig. 823) receives operating and lamp supply voltages from the SDC.
Aft and forward fuel cell sensors supply fuel cell data to the fuel quantity indicator. The dim/test panel provides
display lamp test, digital blanking, and display lamp dim/bright automatic control.
